thats what I mentioned to him about the brembo setup..honsetly the brembos are huge calipers....to make it even worse the brake dust from brembos is insane.....

I honestly would have to see where you are rubbing on the front to say if pulling will give you enough clearance. I dont think you want to run alot of negative camber since its your dd. Your probly running -1.5 right now if your on springs. Remember i think brembo pads are more expensive to replace and you could have some extra cash in ur pockets with the deal. Its all up to you. The wheels look good on the car, and trying to run a more stretched tire will be less sidewall and more lip expose. The poke is really aggressive looking looks good just needs more low

Well I am taking my car to Jake tomorrow morning at 9am.. He should be able to tell if pulling will solve my problem right? I mean the brembos are cool and the pads are more expensive and I don't race the car so it is just an aesthetic thing.

Yea jake can hook it up. Deff get the rears rolls as you wanna keep the rears flush and for the fronts, jake will let you know whats up. Yea its nice havin a bbk but if you now gonna use it to the fullest you could drop down to the 2piston oems and you will be good. You could always upgrade the rotors and pads later on. Just see what jake says tomorrow. I know chris ran a 15mm up front so if you could run a 10 without the bbk that would b killer

I am fairly certain he will have to run a 15mm to clear the stock brake setup. which that would be fine and he wouldnt roll because he isnt as low as I am. if the front tire was dropped down to a 245/35/20 he would be just fine.

yeah but on a 10.5 wheel, that'd be pretty stretched...

I've been doing some research for ya.. I looked over at club lexus where those guys are into the VIP theme mostly, and they run a lot of stretched tires..

They even say that's pushing it and uncomfortable... That SC looks SICK, but I wonder how it feels to drive or ride in.. Those are 10.5s on a 245 width tire, that looks like a rubber band stretched around it, not a tire.

http://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc-4...10-5-rims.html


Also found a picture of how much lip would be poking out of the side if you went w/ this on the M3 forum.. That's a LOT of lip showing on your rims.. You ready for that?

I'm running 225 on a 9" wide and 245 on a 10.5" wide. It's a mild stretch and nothing extreme.
